I recently bought the Adams XTD 17 ans 19 degree Hybrids. I was impressed with how easy and forgiving they are as well as the distance. I tried the 14.5 fairway wood today and was equally impressed. I almost bought the fairway wood today but held off. It is significantly better then my Taylormade three wood but I wanted to go back on another day and see if I was still impressed. What is super interesting is the high ball flight of these clubs with. No loss of distance. Is it me or have other people had similar experience.

I am surprised no one chimed in.  My guess is that they are at the top of the price range and no one is willing to pop for them.  I had a mad money situation and the long clubs were killing me so I went for it.  The hybrid I was playing, an 18 degree Cobra Baffler was hard to get in the air and not very consistent.

I have played a few rounds since my first post and my initial impressions were correct.  Both hybrids have a higher ball flight and have a live face.  Even off centered hits don't lose a ton of distance.  I am surprised how easy they are to hit (for a long club).

I suggest you hit them if you are in the market. At least as a point of reference.

I purchased an XTD Hybrid 17* about a week ago and after one round I love this club.  I have been playing 2 Adams Pro A12 hybrids, a 18* and 20*. I don't think that they will be missed.  I currently play a I20 15* fairway but I am seriously thinking of grabbing the 15* XTD hybrid or fairway to go along with the 17* hybrid.

Very impressed with the shaft in this club, I think it really makes a difference.

    • Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want. 
    • While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).
    • Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.
    • No! Is a large part of the human population selfish, apathetic and cuts corners in the name of self-preservation 'more than they would like to admit', yes. Degenerate, scum, etc?.. no!! Most humans/men would not grope a woman like Phil is accused of doing (I think he absolutely did). That is scum. I mean what % of men do you think would do that? Seriously??
